I usually only stop in when I'm waiting for my doctor's appointment at Slocum for my legs and the places clean oh they have good snacks
Seating was very limited. People were packed together standing at the bar making it hard to enter since there is a narrow path in front of the bar from the front door. Several people were standing after being served with no place to sit so they stood in the area around the bar which made it more crowded and hard to move around
Ate breakfast here while i was getting an oil change for my truck at Lithia. It was good and waitress was nice and the portions were so big that i couldn't eat all of it.
How many time I have been there it's been a nice till environment food is excellent the hamburger can be cooked just a little bit more always has a little pink in it but it's okay if you like it
This was my first visit to The Cooler, which was recommended to me for lunch as an easy "walk to" by Lithia Nissan of Eugene while my Pathfinder was in for service. On entering The Cooler, we were barely greeted by the female server who was closest to the front door, who briefly told us to choose a table. We chose a table in the elevated dining area, not the bar. We ordered three entrees, a lovely cobb salad (5 stars), a hamburger with fries that arrived with a tasty dipping sauce (5 stars), and nachos with chicken (2.5 stars), which arrived with real cheese on them but the entire dish was almost as hard as a rock. Although not burned, it was microwaved too long; thus, it was extremely difficult to break the hardened nachos off the plate and each other. All the servings were generous. Daniel T. was our server, and he was friendly, welcoming, attentive, efficient, and fun (10 stars), well deserving of the 20% tip I left. Am adding a photo that shows a bit of the darkish, bar-style atmosphere. If I owned this venue, I'd have the decor thoroughly cleaned, as it generally looks a bit tired and dusty. Had I been able to eat more than just a tiny portion of my nachos entree, I would have awarded 5 stars instead of only 4 stars.
Favorite bar in town! Bartender Dan is the best, we love him! Also the rest of the staff is superb! Thank you for the great drinks and for the comfortable relaxed atmosphere!
Quiet spot to grab a drink, great atmosphere as well. Seen a few great shows here like Sunny Ledfurd and Matt Borden.
Great place. Classic spot to watch the Duck games and so many memories here. BUT....I literally cannot think of a place, anywhere in the world, that charges $4.00 for a Pabst Blue Ribbon 16oz can.Nowhere..OH... Dan's the best. Yeah
Food below average. Staff well below average. Nothing good about this dive
The Bartender was prompt on my onion rings order. I noticed that the Bartender was making funny jokes to other customers and seems to me that she's a a good worker and wants to be sure that you get want you wanted.I find that the "atmosphere" at the place of good music, not too loud, but really cozy. The food was a little overcooked but tasty.This is now my favorite place to just hang out.
